āOh, um, Lingling was at a party and had too much to drink, so I picked her up.ā
āDo you know what time it is? Do you think it was safe for you to pick her up at a nightclub?ā Qin Chuās voice was cold and distant, unlike how he usually soundedā¦
Huo Mian had the feeling that something was wrong.
āOhā¦ itās fine, Iām not the one whoās drunk. Plus, here I am, safely at home.ā Huo Mian smiled.
Qin Chu didnāt say anything else, but his expression was still aloofā¦
āAre you hungry? I can make you a midnight snack.ā
āNo, I already ate.ā
āThen should I draw you some water so you can take a bath?ā guilty, Huo Mian asked.
āYou should sleep first, I still have work to do.ā Then, Qin Chu got up and headed upstairs to his study.
He closed the door with a ābangā; even the sound was louder than it usually was.
Huo Mian was puzzled, āIs Mr. Qin PMS-ing? Heās acting a little weird today.ā
Although she wondered why he acted that way, she didnāt think too much into it. There was no way Huo Mian was going to tell Qin Chu about what happened just now.
If Qin Chu found out that she stood up against more than 20 men and almost got hurt, he would go crazy. She knew how much Qin Chu cared about her personal safety.
The sky-high insurance that Qin Chu bought her was proof of how much he cared.
Therefore, Huo Mian took a shower and crawled into bedā¦
She waited a long time, but Qin Chu didnāt come; in the end, she fell asleep alone.
ā Inside the study ā
Qin Chu stared at his laptop, but he had no intention to work.
He was at a neighboring city, ready for an all-night emergency meeting.
GK had made property investments in that city, but the local government implemented new policies, so they had to make adjustments.
In order to not waste the billions they had invested, Qin Chu had no choice but to inspect the construction site in person.
Then, he brought along some executives and engineers to attend the all-night meeting.
However, at around midnight, someone sent him a videoā¦
The video was from Rick; they were friends but rarely hung out.
Usually, unless it was absolutely necessary, Rick rarely contacted Qin Chu, because both of their statuses in society were too special.
Moreover, no one knew that when Qin Chu lived in the United States, he and Rick, and even Rickās family, were abnormally close.
After he returned to China, Qin Chu only asked Rick for one favor, and that was to investigate the truck that almost hit Huo Mian.
Therefore, Rick would never send a video to him out of boredomā¦
Qin Chu waved his hand, signaling them to stop the meeting. Then, he walked into the lounge and opened the video.
After watching it, his entire face fellā¦
The Seductive Fox Nightclub was one of Rickās familyās businesses, and cameras were installed in every corner of the club.
Therefore, from Huo Mianās entrance to her exit, Qin Chu saw everything, bright and clear.
Below the video, Rick added, āI heard that youāre not in the city, but donāt worry, I promise that nothing will happen to her.ā
What he meant was, Rick was going to make sure Huo Mian left the club safely. However, she managed to escape herself.
Although what she did was risky, it was still impressiveā¦
Huo Mian probably didnāt know, but someone was actually secretly protecting her when she was at Seductive Fox doing her thing.
After Qin Chu saw what Huo Mian did, he lost his coolā¦
He was not in the mood to continue with the meeting, so he drove home and waited for Huo Mian to confess and apologize.
He had already warned her not to do anything stupid, but she kept putting herself behind enemy linesā¦
What if the nightclub didnāt belong to Rick? What if the men she faced were outlaws?
Would Huo Mian have walked out alive? He didnāt even want to think about it.
However, after he got home and interrogated Huo Mian, she played dumb with him and didnāt even mention what happened.
Did he not even have the right to worry about her? Werenāt married couples supposed to tell each other everything?
This was the first time Qin Chu felt as mad as he didā¦
He was more furious than ever, so he ignored Huo Mian and went up to his study room alone.
He didnāt go back to her room all night.
ā The next morning ā
After Huo Mian got up, she didnāt see breakfast on the table, nor Qin Chu in the condo.
She sent him a WeChat message, āDid you go to work?ā
She waited a while, but no one replied. Huo Mian assumed that Qin Chu was busy, so she didnāt think too much into it.
She left the condo; assuming that the people from last night remembered her license plate, she didnāt want to drive, so she took a cab to the hospital instead.
She received a call from Zhu Lingling as soon as she arrived.
āGirl, what happened last night?ā Zhu Linglingās voice was raspy, as she asked drowsily.
(TL Note: did you guys notice that everytime Qin Chu was a little mad, Huo Mian would always bring up food? Oh, what you want for lunch? Oh, what you want for dinner? Oh, want midnight snack?ā )
